Figures & data
Figure 1 SHD is measured by drawing a line through the symphysis (A) and from the end of the symphysis a second line perpendicular to the fetal skull (B); the last line is the SHD.

Figure 2 AOP is measured by drawing a line through the axis of the symphysis to the lowest point of the symphysis (A); next, from this point, a line is drawn at the anterior border of the skull (C); the angle between these two lines is measured (B) and it is the AOP.
